  1. Good practice from CZ household waste Ivo Kropáček, Friends of the Earth Czech Republic and CEE Bankwatch Network Subotica, 2 June 2011 www.bankwatch.org

  2. Situation in CZ • Landfill fee: 20€/t • Responsibility on municipalities • Take back system for packaging, WEEE • Hazardous waste separation twice/year • Widely (85% municipalities) used: tax per capita (max. 20€/year) Possible to have payment per frequency www.bankwatch.org

  3. Bag system with motivation • Nový Bor, Mladá Boleslav, Letohrad • Separation: plastics, paper, beverage cartons, (glass, metal) • Enables the control quality of separation • Dwellers (have to buy) bags (0,15€/pc.) • Each full bag = lower payment for waste • Works in house as well as flats www.bankwatch.org

  4. Home composting • Biowaste = 1/3 of MSW • Municipalities rent composters to househols and request them to seperate biowaste • Signature of agreement • Definitely lead to decrease of MSW • Brumov-Bylnice saved 18% of MSW www.bankwatch.org

  5. Community composting • Special/ common community composter • Enable composted to residents from house of flats • Possible to lock • (Special boxes for separation biowaste) www.bankwatch.org

  6. PAYT: Example Rozsochy • 720 dwellers have to buy counters • Counter system: pay per each counter on waste bin • Waste company will empty only waste bin with counter – give back to municipality for evidence • Bag system for plastic, containers for paper, glass and metal www.bankwatch.org

  7. Hustopeče nad Bečvou • 1800 dwellers have to buy min. one counter for mixed and one for plast • Counter á 2,6€/mixed, 0,8€/plast • Counters possible to buy in shops • Municipality planed motivation • Results: 115 kg MW/head/year • Less than 100 kg mixed waste/head www.bankwatch.org

  8. Separation of biowaste • Lead to higher recycling ratio • Could lead to higher production of MSW • In CZ it is cheaper to compost waste than to landfill it www.bankwatch.org

  9. Staré Mesto www.bankwatch.org

  10. Suggested measures • Easy separation: Door-to-door collection/bag system • Focus to biowaste: Support home- and comunity- composting • Motivation: PAYT • Focus to waste prevention • Shift responsibility to producers www.bankwatch.org

  11. Thanks for your attention Ivo Kropáček Senior waste campaigner CEE Bankwatch Network www.bankwatch.org
